Visio 2010 crashes whether or not LonMaker is running and both LonMaker and Visio 2010 crash together often when LonMaker is running.

An unexpected error occurred. Please save your drawing and exit Visio/LonMaker.
Environment
LonMaker Turbo Edition
Visio 2010, possibly Visio 2007
Cause
The "Send to Bluetooth" Add-In in Visio 2010 has been known to cause Visio to crash thus bringing LonMaker down with it. This often occurs when Bluetooth is disabled on the computer. When Visio is not able to access the bluetooth, the program crashes.
Another possible cause is that the Add-In is not compatible with DEP.
